If Villanova had advanced to the finals of the Phil Knight classic, they would have played UConn. That means the two teams would have played three times in the regular season. Never seen that before.

I think they try to avoid it but sometimes it’s impossible. Might have been interesting if it happened and then met for a 4th time in the BE Tourney. Then again I hope they are eliminated early in that Tourney!

Back in the 1981-82 season we beat Villanova in finals of the Holiday Festival. Then lost both our conference games later that season. Had we beaten Georgetown in the BET semis, we would have played Nova a fourth time.

I might be wrong on this but I think the teams for the PK events were nailed down a few years in advance, maybe before Yukon migrated back to the BE

Damn....kid has a lot of talent, but that was a punk move. Good for Edert slapping back, but his chicken retreat was not a good look.

Bryant just beat Syracuse by 1 point, with a last second layup. It looks like a bad loss, but Bryant is a mid-major that's usually pretty good. They were 22-10 last year and made the NCAA tournament.

Syracuse looks to be around an NIT level team this year.

Bryant wins it.

That dude on Bryant really gave a slap and then ran away lol. Embarrassing

Waved at the Cuse fans as he walked off.

Grasso and Boeheim had a brief dialogue afterwards and it did not seem all that pleasant.

Grasso

He has a year maybe two tops at Bryant before he’s going elsewhere. He attracted nice talent to Bryant including the Timberlake kid who was a top prospect not too long ago that Penny secured out of prep.
